Yes. I was an art student in college and I've been working in the art field for some time now. I also studied sumi-e under arguably the best foreign-born (she's from New Jersey, haha) painter in Japan, who studied under some heavy-hitting masters. Doesn't mean that my paintings are the bomb, but I learned a lot from her.

Crap, that reminds me, I think I left my paintings somewhere... I gotta get those. I'll upload some of the keitai shots I took if you want.
Ah, I see. Not come across that one before.

Thought so! I never really took art beyond uh...anything, really. Gave taught art up before GCSE, but I loved the sumi class i took last year. Makes me wish I hadn't quit it in high school.

Wait, who was your teacher? I learnt in Japan too and I swear mine said she was originally from New Jersey.

Also yes please on the keitai photos.
